Patriotic Filipinos are few

The recent “PAKULO” ng PANGULO:
GMA lately was into ribbon-cutting ceremonies at two places for a few classrooms. Since 2005, the Congressional committee and the Department of Education identified a shortage of 51,900 classrooms and only 2 billion is allocated yearly. The sad part of it is that in the 11 ODA-funded projects suspended which include the CyberEd project of 26.48 billion pesos, the construction of classrooms was only 45.6 million pesos.
Ms. Ric posted her issue with the prioritizing of projects and Mr. Oriel tried to defend GMA saying that there should be some budget for school classrooms and for Ms. RIC to check it out.
Now this administration, through the Department of Foreign Affairs, wants the OFWs to contribute for school classrooms.
The patriotic OFWs of Saipan recently donated two classrooms for Albay. Remember that most of those projects being prioritized and funded by this GMA (Greed Maximizing Administration) are the large projects in the billions to multi-billion because on the small ones there will a lot of corrupt officials to share the SOP. Maraming papartihan, kung hindi maraming aangal.
What is saddening is that there are only few patriotic Filipinos, the rest are CORRUPT especially among high officials.
